Hybrid seedling plant in a 50mm tube. 

The size, shape and color of Arnie’s Life (Pot. Paradise Rose x Slc. Circle of Life) inspired the name ‘Humongous’  it is a surprising flower from a modest-sized compact plant. Virginia Dickey (Slc. Pink Doll x Sl. Pole-Star) is an excellent parent.  It flowers twice a year, and occasionally 3 times, in 3” pots. It has sturdy stems holding 3-4 bright red flowers of superior form.    Here we are working for the perfect solid red mini-Catt.  I would be betting on this one.
